Etching SiO2 without affecting Aluminum

Transene's Silox Vapox III is 30% or 40% Ammonium Fluoride w/ 4% HF, and it is
loaded with Aluminum to retard it's attack.  It will etch SiO2 at about
4000A/min @ RT, without significant etch of Aluminum.

Someone else, Olin Hunt, maybe, made a Pad Etch called ' 777 ' that is about the
same type of product.

Dear all,
does anyone knows what wet etchant can etching silicon dioxide without etching
aluminum at the same time? Thanks.
